Epicurean Fusion Kampong Glam: Halal Italian Menu and Prices
Epicurean Fusion is a 100% Muslim-owned restaurant serving halal food at 4 Jalan Klapa in Kampong Glam, open Tuesday to Sunday from 12:30pm and closed Mondays. The kitchen runs Italian technique through Singaporean and Indian flavours: charcoal-base pizzas from $19, handmade gnocchi including a butter chicken version at $25, gochujang alfredo, and a beef Wellington at $38. Google has it at 4.7 stars over 400-plus reviews.
The idea: Italian, tuned for Singapore
Fusion usually means confusion, so the test is whether the crossovers taste inevitable.
Butter Chicken Gnocchi ($25) is the one to judge them on: handmade gnocchi in a proper makhani-style gravy, and it works because both cuisines already believe in butter.
The pastas run from a classic Al Cartoccio seafood linguine in parchment ($26) to a Gochujang Alfredo ($24). The pizzas ride a charcoal base, from a $19 Margherita to the $33 Epicurean Cheese Steak, with a Tandoori Chicken at $24 sitting exactly where this restaurant lives. Everything is halal, and the owners are Muslim, though note the kitchen is not MUIS certified.
What to order
Start with the Burrata Salad ($18) or the Epicurean Platter ($36, feeds two to three). Then the mains argument begins.
The Beef Wellington ($38, 20 minutes cooking time) is the signature and the reason half the tables book. The Ossobuco ($36) and Lamb Shank ($30) hold the slow-cooked end, the Branzino ($26) the light end.
Gelato is $5 a scoop to finish. Gluten free or wholemeal penne swaps on any pasta for $7, which halal Italian places almost never bother offering.
